AI cloud? I guess 189 mil will buy nvidia GPUs to host inference for Chinese models for Europeans? Is that what this is?

  That's a real risk.
  Hopefully it's for buying VSORA or Euclyd machines, but well...

    Can you buy these already? I think not.

    The VSORA machines, possibly. They are apparently delivered and being installed at Scaleway.
    The Euclyd machines, probably many months away.

  The best open source models are Chinese, and you've got to start somewhere. Having distribution in place first helps us get the resources to do grander things tomorrow.
